u of Wisconsin GE "brings g o o d things

to light" Greetings and a warm welcome to all our Brothers in Alpha from the Brothers of Gamma Epsilon Chapter at the University of Wisconsin in Madison. We would like to extend a special greeting to our graduate chapter, Mu Eta Lambda, and to all of our Brothers in the State of Wisconsin. This fall the Brothers of "G.E." will be striving ever onward and upward toward the "Light of Alpha Phi Alpha." With almost an entirely new chapter, consisting of transfers and new inductees, Gamma Epsilon will be attempting, with revitalized enthusiasm, to uphold the strong tradition established by our mentor brethren of the past. We will be co-sponsoring a Minority Freshman Orientation in late August, and again mid-September. Also, in the fall, we are planning a Thanksgiving and Christmas Basket project, an Exam Collection Party project, a raffle for the Million Dollar Drive/Send-A-KidTo-Camp Fund, and a joint venture with the Madison Urban League. We would, at this time, like to give special recognition to our Brothers who have graduated and will be going on to hold the name of Alpha high elsewhere. "Good luck" and "best wishes" to Brothers: Henry Drake, off to a career in Engineering; Darrell The Sphinx /Fall 1982

Gamma Epsilon would also like to recognize its new members, who provide the necessary spark vital to any chapter's existence. We welcome transfer Brothers John L.

The high school graduates received plaques for their achievements. Two graduates received $500 scholarships. Each recipient had a 3.5 or better grade point average. The chapter also recognized the young men graduating from junior high to high school, who maintained a 3.0 or better grade point average, with certificates of achievement. It is hoped that through this recognition, these young men will continue toward scholastic and leadership achievements throughout high school.
